Twenty-two antique and unique vehicles  were on hand at the first car show, hosted by Tiverton Park Manor last night (Aug. 25).

A good crowd of residents, guests and car enthusiasts turned out for the event which included a barbecue and local talent, with music supplied by myFM Radio.

Among the cars was a 1972 Pontiac Catalina, owned by David and Carol Little of Point Clark and a 1955 Ford Sunliner, owned by Garry and Janet Robertson of Cambridge.
